Round 2 / Operation Turtle
Love this chapter. When I'm coaching a new wrestler one of the first things you teach them is how to survive against a superior opponent. Because, when they first start, everyone is superior.

Ippo doing his training beforehand is awesome. Made him surviving those hits actually seem believable.

Keep reading buddy. Some fights get so good that may end up blowing past that 10 chapter limit just to finish a match. I'm on chapter 1150 right now. I am taking a break because it's a series that is more fun to binge read. Hope you enjoy it. Maybe give the anime a try to, they executed it really well.

Round 4 / Tears of Joy
Ichirou actually seems redeemable towards the end of this chapter! I like that they call Ippo an "attitude boxer" and the old man acknowledges the history of those.

Never have cared for boxing much but I enjoy this series so far! Have to give it a 9/10 on this one! The journey truly begins with this chapter. Very happy he didn't win though, this sets the tone for the series in a positive way.

Round 7 / Technician
Miyata saving the day with the boxing shoes was awesome! Your sparring partners aren't your enemies! Very awesome getting to understand both character's motivation. That's the truth of sports, both sides are the "good guys" in their own perspective.
